Here is
another most welcome reprint from the folks at Leading Edge. This is for the
Harvard Mk.4 aircraft with the Goldilocks display team. There were seven
aircraft in this team and you can model any one of the seven team aircraft with
this sheet.
A bit of
information on the Harvard. First off, it is not a T-6. There are two main
visual differences between the two. One is that the aircraft has a rather long
exhaust. The other is that the rear window has an extra frame on it. The base of
this window is also shallower than on the T-6. As this is a post war Harvard, it
has the T-6G style greenhouse without all the panes. Note also that there is a
small pipe running from just under the windscreen on the right side to the front
of the exhaust for the oil used to make smoke. The aircraft also have the ARN-6
ADF antenna on the rear fuselage. The planes also lack main gear doors.
There are a couple of kits out there from Monogram and Ocidental that will fill the bill for 1/48 modelers. Neither are particularly new and both have been reboxed by various companies so when you do your search, you'll find more than two options.
The decals themselves are superbly printed and you'll find Leading Edge's usual excellent instructions.
